I remember reading an article published by the magazine Record after Mirage was released where the band were all moaning about the fact that Stevie wasn't around much. It may be in the archives on this site.
Personally I don't think Smile At You or If You Were My Love would have fit on Mirage, as good as they are. I actually like all of Mirage though, I'm with HomerMcVie on this one.
